NASW CODE OF ETHICS As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I am bound by state licensing boards as well as the National Association of Social Work Code of Ethics (see statement below on Charlottesville). If you believe in the ideology associated with any Alt Right group,​I am not the right fit for you as a therapist. The National Association of Social Workers NASW states that white supremacist rallies, violence in Charlottesville, Va. are a blight on American values“NASW recognizes and supports the right of all Americans to free speech. However, hate has no place in America. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, there are currently 917 hate groups in the United States and most are comprised of white supremacists.
